thanks for that, its prob just for my wages to be paid in is it, will the iva practitioner set up an account for the iva process to be monitored.

Yep - you need to open a new account for your wages and direct debits to go through - it needs to be with a bank that is not associated to any of your lines of credit.

Your IVA when approved will be administered by the IP and you will be asked to set up either a standing order or direct debit to them - they then collect the monthly payment from you and periodically will pay a % to each creditor and take their fees. You need not worry about this side of things.

Once your IVA is approved your involvement with creditors ceases - your IP will do all the work for you !

The account will be to replace the one you use now if they are a creditor and you'll need to use this for the duration of your iva. As Lulu says, your ip will sort your iva out and you'll just make monthly payments to them.
